Herbal blood-pressure lowering and blood-lipid lower food

ABSTRACT

The invention provides a kind of food having blood-pressure lowering and blood-lipid lowering properties, the food include cold drink, beverage, flour and cake. The cold drink is obtained by boiling granular semen cassiae together with water in 1:5 proportion for 15 minutes, continuing heating under mild temperature for 30 minutes, filtering, adding liquid containig semen cassiae ingredients to the raw materials of cold drink. The cake is obtained by corperating semen cassiae residues into the flours. The flour is obtained by milling the semen cassiae into fine powder, corporating the powder into the flour.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention involves a kind of food that mixes with Chinese herbalmedicine, and that belongs to the technical field of medicable food,which refers to a kind of Blood-pressure lowering and blood-lipidlowering foods.

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

Since Li Shizhen, the outstanding pharmacological expert of the MingDynasty, undertook initial try in the past, Chinese have begun to fullyexploit the mysteries of the Chinese herbal medicine, which contributeto human brilliantly. However, since the human came into being, andamong those more than 80 billion ancestors who died before us, was itonly several billions which died of the hypertension and the high fat?The cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases even become the deadlykiller to the human in the present age! At least within three decadesbefore the human can draw the illustration of genetic-gene, it is reallyan emergency for finding the “unbeatable rival” in the Chinese herbalmedicines to resist above those killers which take our kindred awayevery now and then! But at present there are no simple and effectivemedicable foods except the specific traditional Chinese herbalmedicines. Especially, the kind of Blood-pressure lowering andblood-lipid lowering food that can prevent above diseases and that ismade by only incorporate a kind of ingredient of Chinese traditionalmedicine that is easy to obtain into the foods.

OPEN OF THE INVENTION

For the problems above, according to the before-mentioned ideas, thepurpose of this invention is to provide a kind of “Blood-pressurelowering” and “blood-lipid lowering” and “loss weight” herbal food byincorporating “Cassia tora L” into the daily diet.

The technological plan adopted by this invention is as follows:

The Herbal Blood-pressure lowering and blood-lipid lowering foodsinclude four classes such as the cold drinks, beverages, flour, andcakes that have the function of lowering the blood fat, thecharacteristics are: incorporate Herbal Cassia tora L powder into abovefour kinds of foods according to different proportioning, and then makeby common craft to gain above four kinds of Herbal Blood-pressurelowering and blood-lipid lowering foods.

Methods in Detail:

1. Cold Drinks:

Confect Herbal Cassia tora L grains and water by 1 kg and 5 kg weightratio, boil for 15 minutes, and then go on for 30 minutes by slow fire,namely cook for 45 minutes together; then filtrate concurrent liquid andsolid to leach out the Herbal Cassia tora L residue to stand-by, andreserve the liquid that contains ingredients of Herbal Cassia tora L tojoin into the material that is ready to make the cold drinks. Dry andgrind above the Herbal Cassia tora L residue filtrated into powder.

2. Cake Type

The abovementioned solid residues are dried and grinded into pieces tobecome the dry semen cassiae powders: Those powders will be mixed intoflour with a ratio that is varied for different persons. The peoplewhose families see the disease histories of hypertension andhyperlipemia need a bigger dosage, so the weight ratio of semen cassiaeresiduals to flour should be from 6-60%. Other people whose familieshave no disease history are common persons taking cassiae for healthcare, so that weight ratio should be from 0.01-1.99%. In accordance witha general cake-making technology, the flour will be made into a snackfood for curing hypertension and hyperlipemia.

3. Flour Type

The semen cassiae residuals are grinded into white-flour-style finepowders. Those powders will be mixed in flour that will be used forcuring hypertension and hyperlipemia with a ratio as follows: Thoseresiduals will be mixed into flour with a ratio that is varied fordifferent persons. The people whose families see the disease historiesof hypertension and hyperlipemia need a bigger dosage, so the weightratio of semen cassiae residuals to flour should be from 5-20%. Otherpeople whose families have no disease history are common persons takingcassiae for health care, so that weight ratio should be from 0.01-4.99%.The mixture will be churned up evenly in a big machine for making avariety of flour food.

BEST WAYS FOR REALIZING THE INVENTION EXAMPLE 1

Add the 0.5 kg semen cassiae powders into the 9.5 kg flour. Mix themevenly in the big machine for making flour food such as dough.

EXAMPLE 2

Dry and grind the 100 g-more semen cassiae residuals into flour-stylepowders and then mix them into the 1900 g flour. Use the flour to makesnack food in accordance with a general technology.

EXAMPLE 3

Add the 2 kg semen cassiae into the 10 kg water and boil it for 15minutes. Then, further boil the cassiae on the middle level of fire for30 minutes, until it has been cooked for 45 minutes totally. Use theboiled liquid to mix the milk and sugar juices whose weights are same asthis liquid. Then, add the mixed liquid into the raw materials ofbeverage, in order to make the cold drinks for curing hypertension andhyperlipemia.

EXAMPLE 4

Add the 10 g semen cassiae powders into the 100 kg flours and mix themevenly. Then, make them into snack food in accordance with a generaltechnology. This food can be provided on the prevention and health-carepurposes for the people whose families see no disease history.

EXAMPLE 5

Add the 60 g semen cassiae powders into the 240 g flours and mix themevenly. Then, make them into snack food in accordance with a generaltechnology. This food can be provided on for the people whose familiessee the disease histories of hypertension and hyperlipemia.

EXAMPLE 6

Add the 60 g semen cassiae powders into the 3940 kg flours and mix themevenly. Then, make them into snack food in accordance with a generaltechnology. This food can be provided on the prevention and health-carepurposes for the people whose families see no history of hypertensionand hyperlipemia.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

The invention has undergone researches and experiments for a longperiod. According to the long-term researches and surveys, thedirections for making the food with semen cassiae not only proveeffective on preventing and curing the hypertension and hyperlipemia,but also are usable for treating with weight loss. However, the food isunfavorable to hypotensives and the persons who often suffer fromdiarrhea. Cold drinks, cakes and flour food that are made with thedirections are accepted easily in customers. With the unperceptiveadjustment of food and drink, diseases which do great harms to humanhealth become curable.
